AMERICA'S HUNTERS --- The world's largest army

AMERICA'S HUNTERS --- Pretty Amazing! The world's largest army... America 's hunters! A blogger added up the deer license sales in just a handful of states and arrived at a striking conclusion: There were over 600,000 hunters this season in the state of Wisconsin .

Allow me to restate that number: 600,000 Over the last several months, Wisconsin's hunters became the eighth largest army in the world. More men under arms than in Iran. More than France and Germany combined.

These men deployed to the woods of a single American state, Wisconsin, to hunt with firearms, and no one was killed. That number pales in comparison to the 750,000 who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania andMichigan's 700,000 hunters, all of whom have now returned home safely.

Toss in a quarter million hunters in West Virginia and it literally establishes the fact that the hunters of those four states alone would comprise the largest army in the world.

And then add in the total number of hunters in the other 46 states.

It's millions more. The point? America will forever be safe from foreign invasion with that kind of home-grown firepower. Hunting....it's not just a way to fill the freezer.. It's a matter of national security.

That's why all enemies, foreign and domestic, want to see us disarmed. Food for thought, when next we consider gun control. Overall it's true, so if we disregard some assumptions that hunters don't possess the same skills as soldiers, the question would still remain...what army of 2 million would want to face 30, 40, or 50 million armed citizens?

I FEEL GOOD THAT WE HAVE AN ARMY OF MILLIONS WHO WOULD PROTECT OUR LAND AND I SURE DON'T WANT THE GOVERNMENT TAKING CONTROL OF THE POSSESSION OF FIREARMS)

For the sake of our freedom,don't ever allow gun control or confiscation of guns.

Allow me to restate that number: 600,000 Over the last several months, Wisconsin's hunters became the eighth largest army in the world. More men under arms than in Iran. More than France and Germany combined.

These men deployed to the woods of a single American state, Wisconsin, to hunt with firearms, and no one was killed accidentally.

The great majority of hunters are not like the beer-swilling rednecks usually portrayed by the leftist gun-control lobby in hollyweird.

Most are safety-conscious and responsible hunters with superior skills. Try sitting motionless for 3-4 hours waiting on a deer or gobbler.. especially turkey. Their eyesight is eight times better than a human. One twitch and he will see you and book..

I have had squirrels crawl over my legs while hunting, not realizing I was even there..

I had a large buck catch me on the ground looking in the wrong direction, standing two paces away, looking straight at me for several minutes, then away, because he felt no threat and was looking for a doe because of the scent I had deployed.Freezer meat.

Sometimes he will come through the woods, completely silent, moving in small gains, looking, standing motionless for 15-20 minutes, waiting for you to make a mistake.. he senses your presence.. but he's not sure.

When he stops, he disappears, blending into the background, obscured by leaves and branches. If you weren't watching him as he paused.. you wouldn't see him.. unless you could pick out the foreign shape in the background. Sometimes an eyeball, the shape of an ear, an antler projecting from behind a tree trunk, the unnatural horizontal of his back..

Adding up the deer license applications does not add up to all using rifles. Many are b ow hunters and many are using shotguns. Even if all were using rifles getting 600k Americans to unite would be an enormous job. Are you thinking 'they' should launch some kind of an attack upon what?????????????

If hunters though, have really been planning and training when they meet out on lonely ranches, and are really the Militia in Camouflage, then yes, one 'could' call them an army of sorts.

But they are not the largest.

The largest Army in the World belongs to China, far surpassing the entire population of the US by hundreds of Millions, their Army does.

You are sorely mistaken.

History is replete with examples of rag-tag citizenry handing embarrassing defeats to organized military forces.

And hunters? My friend, lots of hunters can sit quietly and remain well hidden, while waiting to kill an animal that shows itself - several hundred yards away.

Now, that group of people who can do this, if they were to organize against an opponent force, would be a nightmare for that opponent force.

You are generalizing the subject. And comparing two different things. And the whole rag tag bullshit is not going to happen this time pal.

Get out of your romantic notions. History might repeat, but circumstances dont.

Vietnam proved this. The only reason they defeated the US Militarily is because they prepared in advance.

You confuse your romanticized bullshit, with Military operations.

Military planning. Etc.

If you had the spine, training, and spunk of say, the taliban, maybe, but a bunch a Men off in the woods waiting for someone does not cut it, and you dont understand Armies at all.

Any main action will be in the cities, for that is where all YOUR good comes from. Ports. Cities. Distribution points. Etc.

Meanwhile, while all you pussies are off in the woods 'waiting', all your resource distribution points will be controlled. The entire grid goes down. Chaos ensues.

All the People in the city, are off in the Country, looking for food, running from the occupying army(chicago for example), and fighting YOU pussies hiding in the woods over resources.

Meanwhile, all of your cities are being occupied by real armies coming in from controlled ports at sea.

You GI joe army is already dead on gone by the third world War by this time, so there is no help from them.

Once the cities and ports are taken, the invading army will spread out all over the country, and mop up the rest of you pussies hiding in the woods waiting, that survived the war of the crazy city dwellers in their desperation.

And what you finally are waiting on will come, and the supply line and columns will never end until you fuckers are all gone.

That is the likely and probable scenario.

You are just a blue leg piece of shit, that doesnt not shit about Military tactics. Wars. Operations. And your true chances of surviving you fucking twit.

So keep sitting in that dear stand jacking off to the romance novel you see in your head, its not going to happen that way.

Oh, and wipe that cum off your face, Russians dont like their speared through messy before lights out.

The british weren't amused by these hunter tactics. Those red tunics with white X's made great targets.

The patriots were hunters..

And The United States was born..

No, you are wrong, and that is the very reason why George Washington formed the US Army.

Because these Hunter tactics were getting their asses kicked.

If you dont belive me, read some fucking History, and drop you macho randy savage bullshit theatrics, its getting restarted now patrafag.

Why are you getting pissed?

I know history. It is my hobby, dufus.

There was no standing army at the beginning of the war of independence.Although they were organized as an army later on, the guerrilla[hunter] tactics were still used..

Here ya go, sparky. Read the wiki. There is a lot more in the old books I read, but I'm not scanning shit to prove a point to a numbskull..

Seeking to coordinate military efforts, the Continental Congress established (on paper) a regular army on June 14, 1775, and appointed George Washington as commander-in-chief. The development of the Continental Army was always a work in progress, and Washington used both his regulars and state militia throughout the war.

At the beginning of 1776, Washington's army had 20,000 men, with two-thirds enlisted in the Continental Army and the other third in the various state militias.[15] At the end of the American Revolution in 1783, both the Continental Navy and Continental Marines were disbanded. About 250,000 men served as regulars or as militiamen for the Revolutionary cause in the eight years of the war, but there were never more than 90,000 men under arms at one time.
